The paper introduces PI-AMFM, a permutation‑invariant neural framework that learns to decompose biomedical signals into variable‑cardinality amplitude‑ and frequency‑modulated (AM‑FM) modes. It combines a multiscale temporal encoder, a Mamba backbone, and component‑presence estimation, using Hungarian matching during training to handle unknown numbers of components. Experiments on synthetic AM‑FM signals and photoplethysmographic recordings show that PI‑AMFM outperforms existing methods in decomposition accuracy and successfully captures cardiac and respiratory dynamics without prior knowledge of mode count.
arXiv:2608. 12944v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electrocardiography (ECG), photoplethysmography (PPG), and phonocardiography (PCG) provide complementary views of the same cardiac cycle, yet existing cardiac foundation models are trained for a single sensing modality, leaving the shared physiology across sensors unexploited.
The paper introduces a self‑supervised method for detecting end‑diastole (ED) and end‑systole (ES) in echocardiography by constraining the latent motion to a single‑parameter orbit, effectively modeling cardiac phase as a one‑dimensional signal. This approach yields an interpretable representation that directly identifies ED and ES, improving ED localisation and matching ES performance compared to prior state‑of‑the‑art methods, while using fewer training epochs and a more constrained model. The method is trained on EchoNet‑Dynamic without annotations and the code is publicly available.
The paper introduces the Frequency Selective Neural Network (FSNN), a new foundation architecture for time‑series learning that embeds advanced signal‑processing mathematics into its neural topology. By using a fully differentiable Wiener‑like filter bank optimized with complex‑domain backpropagation, FSNN autonomously discovers and isolates the precise physical modes of a given task, thereby avoiding the spectral entanglement that plagues CNNs, RNNs, and Transformers. Extensive evaluations show that FSNN achieves state‑of‑the‑art predictive performance, attaining 77.0 % average accuracy on the 10 multivariate UEA datasets and leading all major metrics on the imbalanced PTB‑XL ECG benchmark, while converging directly on physically meaningful frequency bands such as the cardiac QRS complex.

AF-Mamba is a deep learning model that predicts atrial fibrillation (AF) onset one hour in advance using long‑term RR intervals. It combines temporal convolutional networks for local feature extraction with Mamba, a state‑space model for long‑range sequence modeling, achieving high sensitivity (0.889) and specificity (0.943) in subject‑wise testing. The model maintains strong performance across unseen datasets, offering a favorable trade‑off between predictive accuracy and computational efficiency for real‑time ambulatory monitoring.
Wrist-worn photoplethysmography (PPG) enables continuous monitoring of cardiopulmonary physiology, but reliable heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR) estimation in free-living conditions remains challenging due to non-stationary motion artifacts that spectrally overlap with physiological dynamics. Existing signal-processing methods degrade under strong motion, while unconstrained deep learning approaches often lack physiological interpretability and identifiable structure.
